Bronze Member Username: CyamPost Number: 24 Registered: Sep-09 | Is this an AQ sponsored website? Cuz 70% of the time AQ1200 is suggested. lol. Either that, or AQ is really as good as people say. |

Gold Member Username: BonhamdTraverse City, MI Post Number: 1927 Registered: Nov-07 | or the ed nine.1 http://www.edesignaudio.com/product_info.php?cPath=1_22&products_id=44 i think sundown and RD both have amps around 1000 RMS at good prices too i would get in touch with: AQ ED RD Sundown you cant go wrong with any of them - i would just go with the cheapest price |

Bronze Member Username: CyamPost Number: 25 Registered: Sep-09 | Thank you Daniel, those suggestions helped...I know AQ and RD but its the first time I looked up ED...they look good and the amp I need is only $195 vs the AQ1200 which runs at $230...saving me money. The NINe.1 is a good amp I take it? Thanx guys! |

Gold Member Username: BonhamdTraverse City, MI Post Number: 1931 Registered: Nov-07 | great amp - ive read that they are not the most efficient but still great quality tahts a lot of power for $195. that amp does 1200RMS at 12 volts |
|
Bronze Member Username: CyamPost Number: 26 Registered: Sep-09 | yeah, they seem to rate them right and keep the temp pretty cool. dont need a cap for these amps. I only need 1000w anyways. And @ 12 volts thats very powerful, cuz my system runs at 14.7 at the moment. ^_^ Most amps take 16v to get up to 1200w sadly. I like the NINe.1 now. Thanks Daniel. |

Gold Member Username: BonhamdTraverse City, MI Post Number: 1933 Registered: Nov-07 | no problem - the eD amp is good quality - just not very efficient eD nine.1 is 64% @ 4 ohms i assume aq is 84% @ 4 ohms rd 1000.1 is 86% @ 4 ohms sundown saz1000 is 86% @ 4 ohms |

Bronze Member Username: CyamPost Number: 27 Registered: Sep-09 | 1200x.64 = 768...I need 800w @ 1ohm...I think It'll do what I need. I found some pretty good reviews on the NINe.1 including an actual test which shows over 1100wrms at 12v. So I guess everyone has their opinions...but for the $195 price tag...thats my ceiling and I think Ill be happy with what I get in that amp. Hopefully. ^_^ |
